In the year 2019 the price for the ski lift pass has risen again.
A family of 4 people has to spend 166 euros a day just for the ski pass in high season.
And we need to add equipment rental expenses, food, etc.

Who can afford this expense? It seems that few people, but Sierra Nevada is full of skiers,
may be that this is why prices continue to grow every year.

There are various types of ski passes in Sierra Nevada:
long term, consecutive and non-consecutive days.
There are also ski passes for families.

Consecutive days ski pass in Sierra Nevada is free for children under 6,
children that are 6-12 years old, disabled and people over 70 years. They only have to
pay 5 euro for insurance. People with 33% disability or more have a
reduced price.

The ski pass prices depend on the age of the skiier: children (6-12 years), junior
(13-16 years), adults (17-59 years) and senior (60-69 years).

Long Term Ski Passees

Long term ski passes are only for people who have the Sierra Nevada Club Card.
Prices includes insurance and VAT.

The ski pass bought with the Sierra Nevada Club Card is not transferable to another person.

There two types of long term ski pases: seasonal and
non-consecutive 10, 15, 20 and 25 days.

Seasonal Ski Pass

You can buy a pass for the whole season: the price is 663 euros for children,
884 euros for junior and senior, and 1104 euros for adults.

If you are planning to ski
at least 30 days during the season, it is worth buying it.

Compared to the Alpes it is expensive. Sadly we came high season, with line-ups.
Thought it would be better priced. Stay in the Alpes (Robert).

What a shame, nice knowing you... Adiós

What a shame, prices were expensive, now excessive. As a resident of Granada I've been
coming to the Sierra regularly for 7 years, but no more. Miserable waiters brimming
with "mala folla" and crap apre-ski makes the cost even more unbearable.
Nice knowing you, Sierra. Adiós.

Come to Granada but not to ski

Don't come to Granada to ski. The price of the forfaits are insulting for what is less
than an average ski resort. The apri-ski is practically non existent, and the waiters
in the restaurants (selling crap food at equally exhorbitant prices) give the
impression that they hate you.

Come to Granada by all means, it's a lovely city
with loads of rustic charm, but ski elsewhere. Madrid is a better option.
Sorry Granada, but your lust for profit is killing this resort.

This saving should be passed on to the skiers

I purchased a 4 day ski pass on February 1st at a senior rate as I am 69 years old.
My querie is why should we pay so much money when there are less than half the lifts open.

I am guessing that the reason for this is that as there are less people in the resort due
to the lack of snow, the resort is saving money by closing down over 13 lifts.

I feel this saving should be passed on to the skiers with a reduction on their
lift passes and then be given a refund accordingly.

I am returning to Sierra Nevada the second week in March.
I welcome your views. Thank you (Alan).
